New Year's Eve is just around the corner and preparations for the party are already in full swing. Maybe you've already thought about the menu and prepared a few wrap appetizers. But there is one thing that is often overlooked. You're probably familiar with the problem - even at a small party, the number of glasses can quickly become confusing. Every guest has their glass in their hand and wants to put it down somewhere. So far everything would be fine if everyone could find their drink straight away later. Unfortunately, this is usually very difficult. So that we could quickly recognize our own glass, it would make sense if we marked the glasses. That's what we're here for and in today's article we'll show you lots of different ways to tell the glasses apart!
Quick and practical: mark glasses with a pen
Which was my glass again? Sooner or later this question comes up at every celebration. But that's finally over now! Probably the easiest and fastest way to mark the glasses is with a normal pen. You can find special marking pens for glasses in craft supplies, which can be easily removed later when washing up normally. Simply place a few glass markers next to the glasses and each guest can then write their name on them. Or how about turning it into a funny oneNew Year's Eve gamemake? The guest with the most creative design wins a bottle of champagne at the end of the evening!
Label jars with simple labels
And here's another super easy and quick way to mark the drinking glasses. Create the desired shape for your labels or print ready-made templates on cardstock. Then simply write the guests' names on them and attach the labels to the glasses with a small clothespin. Here too, there are absolutely no limits to your imagination and you can mark the drinking glasses and decorate them however you like.
